- And to let this happen I have mentioned 4 Steps that will lead you to more sensible use of smartphones.
[ Note : If you are not able to follow all the steps mentioned bellow then just follow step 4 because it is alone capable for making you the master of your phone. ]
So Lets get started...
1 Step : Start with morning
- The best way to get rid of a bad habit is to replace it with good habit.
- Most people are using smartphone as first thing in the morning it is simple because you set an alarm on it.
- And after you turn it off in the morning you see some notification popping up and then you end up spending 15-20min on your phone.
- So the trick is to replace your phone with tiny alarm clock so that when your turn off your alarm clock you will have no reason to check your phone.
- And you will now be able to use those 15-20mins to enjoy a deck free morning , You can also keep some real interesting book on your bed side so that you can read it in the morning instead of using phone.
- If you are taking your phone to washroom then replace your phone with a book.
- Basically your mind need replacement not enforcement.
- Example : If you say that I will not use phone in wash room is enforcement but taking a book in place of smartphone is the replacement.
2 Step : Avoid over use of phone through out the day
- The best way to achieve this goal is to create the friction with smartphone.
- You can easily create this friction by start using " GREY SCALE FEATURE ". Option of grey mode is available for both IOS as well as ANDROID you don't have download any thing.
- If you don't know that how to enable GREY SCALE FEATURE in your phone then watch this 2mins video.
- For ANDROID click here.
- For IOS click here.
- This trick really works because we humans have grown to be extremely sensitive towards colour.
- And according to my experience that when I turn off the colour of my phone it becomes very less interesting to me and same will going to be the case with you too.
- You must know that this big companies that make apps are using colours in such a way that you get addicted to those apps.
- When ever you click on the app icon you brain will produce dopamine so it will get addicted to those apps.
3 Step : Remind yourself
- Stick some posture some where around your room which will remind you that you don't have to waste you time on phone.
- You can also use the wallpapers on your phone that will constantly give you the reminder that smart phone is wasting your time.
- It really works . I have mentioned a link from where you can download some photo which could be used as wallpapers for your phone.

- You can also take the print of this photo so that you can stick it some where which will help you to remind you that you don't have to overuse smart phone.
4 Step : Avoid Notifications
- More apps you will have more will be the notifications that you see therefore delete the apps that are useless for you.
- And if that is not possible the just turn off the notifications of the useless social media apps . Remember most of social media apps available are really useless.
- I am saying this because all this notification are designed to keep you always in touch with those apps please don't fall in the trap of this social media apps.
- I guarantee that you will really feel relive please try it out just for 1 day.
- Don't you worry that you will miss out some thing because there have been really generation who lived without this smart phone and they really lived better then us.
- I am also using this trick and I have not missed any sort of valuable information.
Conclusion : I want you to use smart phone as its master not as a slave . Because being master help you to live happy as well as will increase your productivity
